In the last few sentences, Pei Ji said it decisively.
He wasn't joking, this matter was really so serious.
"If the remaining refined iron on the market can meet Li Er's needs, then this matter will be troublesome. Li Er is very likely to use this part of refined iron to cast weapons."
"When the time comes, no matter how talented the Turkic Wolf Lord is, I am afraid that he will be defeated in the hands of Li. If this is the case, then we will never expect to see the light of day again!"
Pei Ji gave a warning, and everyone suddenly woke up from the drunkenness.
One after another...
"Here I go, we really have this problem!"
"What can't the thieves in Tiance Mansion do?"
"Thinking about it this way, it's really possible for these ignorant and treacherous ministers to stop the Wolf Lord!"
"So, as expected... Is it imperative that I wait for this?"
"That's it!"
Everyone was nervous, and finally Wang Jing made the decision.
"No matter what the price is, we must eat up every cent of this new refined iron!"
"Exactly so!"
"But..." At this time, Cui Baihe of the Qinghe Cui Family suddenly felt confused, "The price of refined iron has risen a bit too high. Even as you said, the refined iron that is being shipped at low prices recently is also in the eight-month period.
More than ten strings. This price..."
"Brother Cui, in the face of great righteousness, why should you accept small gains?"
Lu Changgeng immediately patted his old friend on the shoulder, Cui Baihe sighed and said.
"Brother Lu, you know that I, the Cui family of Qinghe, were hit hard due to the paper price incident a few days ago. Now I really... don't have much food left, alas!"
When Cui Baihe said this, Lu Changgeng was also startled.
Then I thought with annoyance...
"That's what Brother Cui said... I, the Fan Yang Lu family, also suffered heavy losses due to the pen and ink incident some time ago. How hateful is this Li Er?"
"At the court, all my people told me that Fan Yang was in flames, but this person insisted on coming to investigate, so I had no choice but to order someone to set the fire on, and the whole drama was played out. Now... alas!"
As he spoke, Lu Changgeng also sighed.
In fact, everyone knows what is going on. The Fan Yang Lu family is actually worse than the Qinghe Cui family.
In fact, Qinghe paper is still occasionally purchased by many wealthy families.
But after the ink and charcoal pens were released for a while, Li Er, a foolish king, believed some treacherous official's slander and actually required all the scholars who participated in the imperial examination to answer with charcoal pens.
So all of a sudden, almost all the scholars in the country gave up writing brushes and inkstones and switched to writing with charcoal pens.
His Fanyang Lu family's pen and ink industry is almost...
It was completely destroyed out of thin air.
It's all ruined!
The two of them lamented to each other, and the rest of the people were also a little bit sad.
But at this moment, Li Tiancheng, the old man of the Li family in Longxi, suddenly said.
"Everyone, for this reason, we must not let Li Er get the chance to resist the Wolf Lord. If the Wolf Lord fails to make a contribution this time, Li Er will definitely bully us again for hundreds of years."
"By then, not to mention the wealth in front of me, even the words "Five Surnames and Seven Hopes", I'm afraid they will all disappear!"
As soon as Li Tiancheng said these words, everyone was shocked.
That’s really the case!
If the Wolf Lord fails to capture Li Er this time, then probably no one in the world can stop Li Er.
As for Li Er's subordinates, Du Ruhui, Wei Zheng and others are traitorous ministers, but none of them are easy to mess with.
Not to mention, Li Er, the young strategist behind the scenes, is simply more powerful than the group of old people in Tiance Mansion put together.
If this is the case, is there any place for aristocratic families to stand in this world?
I'm afraid that they will all be uprooted!
Compared to this, the high-priced refined iron is just...
Well, if you think about it, it doesn't seem unacceptable.
As soon as Li Tiancheng finished speaking, Pei Ji immediately smiled and nodded.
At this moment, Wang Jing also said,
"Brother Cui, Brother Lu!"
"My two brothers, Gao Yi, have sacrificed a lot to fight against the tyranny of the fatuous king. But this time, we have also spent all our wealth on it, and there is almost no gold or silver left."
"But... we are not helpless and can only watch Li Er sneak into Chen Cang. Isn't our biggest trump card... food?"
When Wang Jing said this, everyone was stunned.
Food...food!
Food and land are the real reasons why aristocratic families are able to enjoy their food.
To use food is tantamount to touching everyone's core interests. Wu Xing Qi Wang, a small group that controls massive resources, is tantamount to losing the greatest sense of security.
It’s really hard to make up your mind to be cruel…
Wang Jing and Pei Ji didn't rush everyone, they just watched quietly.
After a while, Li Tiancheng suddenly said.
"I, the Li family of Longxi, are willing to spend all my family's food to raise funds and buy out the fine iron!"
"I, Fan Yanglu, are also willing! I will spend two hundred thousand dan of all my food reserves to buy out the fine iron!"
"I, the Cui family of Qinghe, are also willing to spend 250,000 dan of stored grain to buy out the fine iron!"
"good!"
Wang Jing directly raised his arms and shouted, "You all are so righteous, how dare I, the Wang family of Taiyuan, stand still?"
"For this battle, I, the Wang family of Taiyuan, are willing to use all the Wang family's reserves of 400,000 dan, and work with you to buy all the fine iron!"
Seeing this scene, Pei Ji smiled with satisfaction.
Sure enough, everyone still understood the righteousness of fighting against Li Er.
If Li Er is lucky enough to survive the Wolf Master's sword, then in the future... these food and land will still become less and less. I don't know when... I am afraid that they will disappear in less than a hundred years.
This is the time to go all out!
Seeing that everyone had expressed their opinions, Pei Ji also smiled and said.
"Since everyone is participating, how dare I, the Pei family, fall behind others? For this matter, I, the Pei family, also spent 300,000 dan from all my food reserves, and worked with you to dig the grave of this foolish king, Li Er!"
Think about Li Er being defeated by the Turkic Wolf Lord and becoming a prisoner, while he and everyone else became the Duke of the country...
Everyone couldn't help but feel happy, they just felt...that's what they should do!
"Even if this decision involves a little... risk, as long as Li Er falls, when will he not be able to collect it back?"
"If you keep the green hills, you won't have to worry about running out of firewood! Besides..."
Pei Ji suddenly changed the subject and revealed a smile.
"Even though the price of this fine iron reaches eighty guan, how can the price of the fine iron in our hands be lower than 90 guan? Sooner or later, the price of this iron will exceed one hundred guan!"
"Although this investment is huge...but won't there still be some profit in the future?"
When Pei Ji said this, everyone was stunned.
I understood instantly.
yes!
Lu Changgeng smiled, "Master Pei is still sensible! Although this is a little risky, isn't it still profitable!"
Cui Baihe also said with bright eyes, "Yes! Isn't it up to me to decide what the price of this fine iron will be in the future? Let alone eighty guan, it will be 800 guan. It's not a loss at all!"
"
"Master Pei is a man of great talent and strategy. We should really worship Master Pei as our master!"
